The Property
The Old Farm House is a Grade II listed family home that is packed with character and situated within the heart of the old village just a short walk from an impressive range of amenities.

The First Floor
A generous first floor landing provides access to four double bedrooms all with period fireplaces and a spacious family bathroom fitted with a four piece suite including a cast iron roll top bath. The master bedroom is large and overlooks the rear garden through a large Georgian style window. The fireplace within the bedroom has a particularly attractive Georgian surround and off the bedroom is a dressing room and newly fitted en suite shower room.
